📋 About This Mod
Range Display
This mod displays the range of the sprinklers, scarecrows, bee houses, and junimo huts that you have. It works anywhere you can place sprinklers, scarecrows, or bee houses (including the greenhouse).
Press the activation key (default f2) to switch through showing scarecrows, then sprinklers, then junimo huts, then bee houses, then all at once, then none.
Press the modifier key (default left control) and hover over an item in the world (sprinkler, scarecrow, etc) to see the range of just that item.
The range of items that you hold (sprinklers, scarecrow, bee house, etc) will be displayed at your mouse cursor while you're placing them.
You can specify multiple keys to activate for each option n a comma separated list. For example, 'leftcontrol,rightcontrol' for modifier key lets you use either of your control keys.
Version 2. 0 is completely new. When upgrading delete your Sprinkler Range folder or it won't load. You'll need to reset your key bindings (sorry :( )
